Find a new way to enjoy cabbage with these stuffed cabbage rolls. Steamed cabbage leaves wrap around a mixture of beef, sausage, onions, rice, egg and seasonings. The finished rolls need to simmer for about an hour, so make sure to leave enough time.

Ingredients

8 large cabbage leaves

1 tsp olive oil

1 large sweet onion, sliced and separated into rings

28 oz can crushed tomatoes

2 cloves garlic, quartered

2 cups water

Stuffing:

1 lb ground beef

½ lb bulk Italian sausage

½ cup diced onion

1 tsp salt

½ tsp black pepper

2 tsp dried oregano, crushed

2 tsp dried basil, crushed

2 cloves garlic, pressed

1 egg, lightly beaten

¼ cup tomato paste

1 cup rice, cooked al dente and cooled

Steps

Steam the cabbage leaves until tender. Let cool. Set aside.

Coat the bottom of a pan with oil and place over medium heat. Add onions and toss to coat. Cover and steam the onions, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft and translucent. Add the tomatoes, quartered garlic cloves, and water. Simmer about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
